(Eddie Beethoven and Joe Ely). . What's Shakin' Tonight. What's Shakin' Tonight. Hey pretty baby What's Shakin' Tonight?. What's Shakin' Tonight. What's Shakin' Tonight.
When you're ready or steady,. To go dancin', romancin',. Grab your sweetheart and jump in your car.. Drive right on down,. To the bright side of town.
Get ready for the judge in me. It's coming over, get on your feet. All my goodness is all I got for you. Have I shown you lately what my clan can do?.
So, something I was trying to stall. Made its way to you and you rush in like you always do. Hmm, everything I have is spent and I've got used to you home.
Up on the Ridge I seen a rider passin' by. Up on the Ridge I seen a rider passin' by. I heard thunder in the distance. I seen lightning in his eye. . Up on the Ridge I gotta tangle with my fate.
I won't let you break. You'll live to fight another day. All so you feel safe. I'd take a bullet jump a speeding train. . I kick to stay afloat. And end this sad song on a happy note.
No more lying down. We've got to speak and move. No more righteousness. Everything is far too wrong. No more selfish tears. You haven't paid for them.
The dogs are 'round the tree. They've got him up a tree. He knows he's up a tree. The dogs are showin' teeth. . They know he must come down. They know that they can wait.
I spend my days thinking of you. . I spend my days thinking of you and all we've done. Praying you'll never think of me. When you left my side I took your freedom as a sign.
I recall that Twisty River Bridge. Over that painted river bed. They pumped about a gallon of muddy mater. Out of my crazy head. . I woke up in St. James Devine.
You break the wrongs for your tears, so sad. To end a part of me just like that. I feel lost and still unaware. Throw your worries down with your cares.
(Jimmie Gilmore). . I'm going out where the lights don't shine so bright.. I'm going out where the lights don't shine so bright.. When I get back you can treat me like a Saturday night..
I tried to fight the feeling, the feeling took me down. I struggled and I lost the day you knocked me out. Now everythings got meaning and meanings bring me down.
Tonight I think I'm gonna go downtown.. Tonight I think I'm gonna look around. For something I couldn't see. When this world was more real to me.. Yeah tonight I think I'm gonna go downtown..
Don't wanna let you down. I've been lucky I was lost. Now I'm found. . You could be the first. In the universe, who's glad. They're watered down. . And that's why.
(Joe Ely). . I came into Atlanta. Dreamin' of Lorraine. Came so tired of ridin'. Cross the Savanna Plain. Still feel the wheels a-rollin'. Feel them just the same.
Sherry was a waitress at the only joint in town.. She had a reputation as a girl who'd been around.. On Main Street after midnight, a brand new pack of cigs,.
I've had better days. Days when the milk and the honey. It poured into me, yeah. . And I've had better times. When I was up on my feet. And not down on my knees, yeah.
Because you walked - that lonesome valley. Because I met - you in your town. Because you saw - stars in the alley. Because the street - light, you, did crown.
Maybe I'll call, and then maybe I won't. ever be there, I know you need me,. I don't know no one like you do.. So I'm taking my time, taking some time alone,.
